How could nuclear deal be incorporated in the CMP when it came up later. Does it mean that issues cannot be and should not be handled as they emerge? And dont they come up in between? Where's the new energy coming from? It may supply 3% as of now, but can go up later. The issues are whether it is safe form of energy production after Chernobyl, whether India's interests are compromised and if so in what form? How else can India achieve growth and when will we eradicate unemployment? And look at the Naxal movement.

Any new issue, which is not a part of the CMP, could be brought in.But, then the Govt should take its supporters into confidence, have discussions and then implement it. But, in the case of this Nuclear Deal, the Congress just tried to hoodwink their own supporters. They did not show the Draft Text of the Agreement to their own supporters (leave alone the Country). Finally, they published the text net only after somebody posted the same on the net in the US.
There is no answer from the supporters of the deal (in the Govt) for a few simple questions. What happens if India tests a Nuclear Device from its own material? What are the consequences? What happens to the lakhs of crores (of Tax payers money) invested in this deal?
if the issue were "nuke deal with Iran or gas deal with Iran", the Left would have no problem to include it in the Common Minimum Program. The only problem is that the deal is with the USA. Thats why the Left dogs are barking. And the scavengers, the BJP, is there already, waiting for the moment, so that they can enjoy the rest.
